To sum up, the language differences and cultural gaps between Chinese languages, flexible wording and sentences are conducive to translating Chinese culture and promoting cultural communication, keeping pace with The Times and adopting formal language expression is conducive to standardize the translation of vocabulary and gradually establish the Chinese discourse system.
